Restrikted
10.08.11 | My funniest one was a broken finger and I laughed when it broke lol i had to much to drink that night
And yes it was Red Bull I know i'm so badass |
AngelofDeath
10.08.11 | No injuries for me. I generally just like to stand and watch the show lol. |
Trebor.
10.08.11 | I have a really low center of gravity and I never get knocked down even though I'm skinny as fuck |
Hyperion1001
10.08.11 | i got high once |
Ovrot
10.08.11 | i sprained my neck in the pit at amon amarth and got stabbed with a spiked arm bracelet at a forbidden show and you don't get whiplash at every thrash show then you're doing it wrong |
Vesper
10.08.11 | ^ Ovrot knows how to do it.
Also, lol at Restrikted. |
Crysis
10.09.11 | Friend of mine got hit in the face with the bassist of Unearth's headstock but as for me I've never sustained any real injuries at shows probably because I don't go to enough of them |
Hyperion1001
10.09.11 | because you cant ha |
taxidermist
10.09.11 | Don't remember what bands, but I've had
1. Black eye
2. Chop to the throat
3. Fists to my back
4. Side kick to the knee that fractured my patella
5. Blow to the side of the head
and that's all I can remember. Pits can be brutal sometimes. |
Crysis
10.09.11 | "because you cant ha"
fuk u |
taxidermist
10.09.11 | Also, that knee injury left me in crutches and a brace for over a month. Now my knee can move side to side really weird. |
Ovrot
10.09.11 | I'm really surprised at some of the pits. It will be like the darkest most brutal band with giant 300 pound, 7 foot people in the pit and they help you up and help you find your lost shoes or something and then other shows with a hard rock band will be nothing but people punching each other. |
AngelofDeath
10.09.11 | Should've engaged Ivan Drago mode and crushed some hoes. |
Hyperion1001
10.09.11 | ily dont be mad |
Crysis
10.09.11 | it's ok living in nowhere is pretty cool because it's trve up here |
AngelofDeath
10.09.11 | So trve even the black metal bands stay five hours away lol. |
Crysis
10.09.11 | krieg m////// |
Vesper
10.09.11 | Yeah, metal shows I've been to have actually some of the *nicest* pits, in that people are aggressive and having fun, but not trying to hurt each other.
Shit, taxidermist. Careful, dude. :/
I also got a chop to the nose, but it just tingles kind of weirdly so I have to scrunch it once in a while, haha. |
Vesper
10.09.11 | Lol, the jewed one.
There are places to live that are pretty krieg but still within access of venues, man, haha. |
AngelofDeath
10.09.11 | "Lol, the jewed one."
Hey, that's my word. What the hell? |
Ovrot
10.09.11 | JEWRY! |
Crysis
10.09.11 | re-record material for obvious money-grab?
JEWRY! |
Ovrot
10.09.11 | ha ha! |
Ovrot
10.09.11 | varg is obviously a freemason now |
Crysis
10.09.11 | he's the unoffical spokesman for umbro clothing |
Crysis
10.09.11 | http://www.last.fm/group/UMBRO |
Ovrot
10.09.11 | lol
that is hilarious
umbro is only for the kvltist of bros |
AngelofDeath
10.09.11 | Hahaha, why would any business in their right mind associate Varg with their brand? |
Crysis
10.09.11 | want to tap in to the bm crowd must be testing the waters to see how they like it |
Hyperion1001
10.09.11 | i still want that coffee mug |
taxidermist
10.09.11 | Yeah, def more careful now. Anyone moshing gets near me I just kick them (not hard, but some "force" applied :p ) so they can back away, lol. |
Vesper
10.09.11 | "Hey, that's my word. What the hell?"
No, it's not - it's in Urban Dictionary, lol. |
Ovrot
10.09.11 | The worst injury I've ever had was at a volbeat show
i died of boredom
|
AngelofDeath
10.09.11 | Urban Dictionary's always jackin' my shit. |
Ovrot
10.09.11 | i thought that about rape train too |
Ovrot
10.09.11 | i would expect that no else but you silentpotato |
Ovrot
10.09.11 | i mean that in a good way |
Ovrot
10.09.11 | my friend matt got punched in the face by some metal chick at a warhead show
it was badass |
AngelofDeath
10.09.11 | Chicks go hard in the pits, man. |
Ovrot
10.09.11 | silentpotato for most metal user.
my same friend matt got knee'd in the face from jumping off the stage. |
Ovrot
10.09.11 | oh god i was just reminded of this dude at a thrash show who was behind me and started to give me a neck rub because he thought i was his girl. It was weird man. His girl had short hair and everyone had long hair. He also looked like he just did a truckload of drugs |
Ovrot
10.09.11 | i was smashed between two giant sweaty fat guys at amon amarth. We were all standing there waiting for the band and everyone rushed forward when the band came out and i wasn't ready and got smashed and lost my friends for a few songs |
Acanthus
10.09.11 | On my birthday my ex and I went to a local show, turns out she's not into crowds and all her friends are wallflowers. So I'm shirtless headbanging and a small pit starts (I love[d] to mosh) so I just run and jump in. Of course being a small guy I get thrown around a lot, which is half the fun, and during this my industrial piercing meets this dude's shoulder, also breaking my glasses. After the pit ends I go over to her all smiles and euphoric, turns out I've got a nice stream of blood going down my shoulder/chest. Only real injury I've got from a show really. |
Acanthus
10.09.11 | Well now I still want to mosh, but really have to worry about stabbing someone with my spikes or getting a few ripped out, not to mention my nipple piercings; I've just got to pre-plan is all. |
Acanthus
10.09.11 | It's a nice release for now, and the random split-second companionship that forms is fun. |
someguest
10.09.11 | that pink hat always makes me laugh |
Acanthus
10.09.11 | Oh I don't drink/drugs when I mosh, and the music has to be right, but I get what you mean. |
Acanthus
10.09.11 | Haha yeah that works too, though most girls who go to the clubs here are far dumber that I'd care to talk to. |
Relinquished
10.09.11 | " i always see dudes with massive gauges or chicks with like fucking corset piercings and wonder how a finger has not yet accidentally hooked on it and torn it right the fuck out of the skin"
I saw that shit happened. the girls screamed so hard, fucked up part was that after 4 minutes yelling some guy knocked her out to shut her up, so I knocked him out. |
Acanthus
10.09.11 | Tell her that they come out naturally after months anyways, this way just saved her time. |
Acanthus
10.09.11 | The dubstep nights here are similar, I like to get the 'step crowd moving to powernoise (makes me feel like there's hope still).
In general though I don't go to my club night looking for anything more than to see a few friends again. |
Acanthus
10.09.11 | Well I don't think there's too many reasons to pass up that stuff free all told, hopefully it goes well.
I only go to the industrial night here, makes everything simpler. |
SlitYourGuts
10.09.11 | I twisted an ankle at Streetlight Manifesto and got heat stroke at Warped 2010 |
Ovrot
10.09.11 | at shows in arizona you are expected to get heat stroke |
Trebor.
10.09.11 | Skanking rules dude |
Trebor.
10.09.11 | hardcore dancing does suck |
crazyblinddude
10.09.11 | Nothing really serious actually. Just standard getting hit by a few d-bag hardcore dancers and high as shit crowd surfers. I always like to pay back the fucks who end up hitting me though. Gave a guy the most deadly kidney shot and he actually fell over hahahahahah. He deserved it because he was waving his nasty as shit hair everywhere and starting shit. |
SamHandwich
10.09.11 | Dudes with no shirts in mosh pits need to get the fuck out |
Vesper
10.09.11 | Oh, wow, I go to get some food and this thread exploded, lol.
Lots of interesting stories, though, guys.
This is why I have lost every last bit of respect for Warped Tour "pits": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=av6QkdZ7Aek |
newjunkaesthetic93
10.09.11 | Some guy smashed my nose at warped a couple years ago and i bled all over my white shirt. It was cool though cause it was during DEP, and my bloody shirt made me sorta look almost badass (a little). |
taxidermist
10.09.11 | "http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=av6QkdZ7Aek "
LOL! And I used to HxC dance. Hate how some people give it a bad name (there's always those people). I always stopped when I got near a person. Never swung my fists back at the crowd either. Shit's gay. Kicked a guy straight in his nuts once, though, lol. He was also in the pit :p |
Wolfhorde
10.09.11 | Only injury I ever had a on a concert was a sprained finger. Probably also because I stay away from idiots dancing like a Chinese on speed. |
Vesper
10.09.11 | I think what makes that ADTR video is that they yell "DISREPECT YOUR SURROUNDINGS!!" and then just pathetically flail their arms.
I usually don't mosh too much, since I'm about half the size of most guys at metal shows, but you're doing it wrong if you don't join in at a Thou show.
But, augh, my neck hurts so badly. I'll be in even more terrible shape after Immolation, haha. |
Wolfhorde
10.09.11 | People that do "violent dancing" (move like a spastic) are most likely to get hit by pissed off people on the concerts I was yet. Maybe because it's not exactly approriate for a Metal concert. Especially Death Metal. |
Vesper
10.09.11 | Yeah, I'm not a fan of "violent dancing" either, but you don't really see that at metal shows, unless it's more akin to metalcore or whatever.
Moshing has to suit the music, really. You can't help but mosh to Thou, especially when the frontman is right in the middle of the pit, haha.
But I was pretty annoyed by the people trying to mosh to WitTR the last time I saw them, because who the fuck moshes to "Ahrimanic Trance"...? |
DeafMetal
10.09.11 | nice list saw thou last week |
Vesper
10.09.11 | Thanks, man. Where did you see them?
They've hit New York three times in the last month and have been even better each time. Dudes are awesome. |
AngelofDeath
10.09.11 | SOMETHING IN THE WAAAYYYY |
DeafMetal
10.09.11 | pittsburgh n ya all the dudes are great |
Ire

Vesper
10.09.11 | m/
I'm just going to have to suck it up and convince myself I didn't completely destroy my neck at Thou when I see Immolation on Monday.
Wtf, sonic? Hahahahaha. |
Ire
10.09.11 | gonna see thou in january m/ |
Vesper
10.09.11 | You're gonna have this m//////////////////////uch fun.
I can't wait for them to get their asses back here, haha. Too bad it will be at least a year before they come back to NY again, according to Bryan. :/ |
DeafMetal
10.09.11 | damn |
Wolfhorde
10.09.11 | "Yeah, I'm not a fan of "violent dancing" either, but you don't really see that at metal shows, unless it's more akin to metalcore or whatever."
Not true. I was on a concert where mainly Metal bands played and at the last act some idiots did violent dancing to Raw, which is a local thrash/death band. |
Vesper
10.09.11 | Sonic's a Juggalo? Well, shit. :o
Well, I wasn't eliminating the possibility altogether, Wolf. I just haven't personally seen that kind of thing at shows I've gone to, mostly in NY. |
Gilgamahesh
10.23.11 | Narrowly missed a concussion after being hit from behind at a mosh pit at an A Day to Remember show in Jersey. To this day I have no idea what it was. |
someguest
10.23.11 | he's dumb enough to be a juggalo |
foreverendeared
